The tzdata error appeared - I continued the upgrade. It went from bad to worse to horrid. In the end upgrade reported it could not complete. Some fleeting statement to the effect of a recovery appeared then went away. For 30 minutes nothing happened. I then restarted --- I would have been better served opening a window and throwing the whole system out.
I do not understand why an upgrade must erase user data - applications - preferences for applications that are not part of Ubuntu's promised land. All application, data, preference for Thunderbird is non-existent. Is that supposed to make me happy to use Ubuntu?? I do not think so! I have made a diligent effort to use Ubuntu instead of Windows XP on this system. In a word it has been way too hard, frustrating, and --- words I just cannot find to state the condition. -- error upgrading tzdata_2007e to tzdata_2007f https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/116193 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
